00:18Israel has refused to participate in any U.S. ground operation in Iran,
00:24a development many pro-Iran voices are calling a public admission of weakness.
00:30According to reports from Channel 12, the Zionist regime is militarily exhausted,
00:36manpower depleted, and strategically overstretched after months of multi-front attrition.
00:42The IDF Chief of Staff, Lieutenant General Herzi Halevi, recently warned Israel's Security Cabinet
00:50that the army is facing imminent collapse. He cited shortages of 12,000 to 20,000 soldiers,
00:57including roughly 8,000 combat troops, with reservists on their sixth or seventh mobilization
01:04cycles. Years of conflicts in Gaza, southern Lebanon, the West Bank, Syria, and now operations
01:11against Iran have stretched the IDF to breaking point. Analysts say sending troops into Iranian
01:18territory, with its vast mountains and prepared defenses, would accelerate this collapse.
01:24Iranian experts also highlight the risk of heavy casualties. Iran is not Gaza or Lebanon.
01:31Its rugged terrain, entrenched IRGC and Basiaj forces, and a population ready to resist any invader,
01:39make any ground incursion extremely costly. Iranian officials have openly taunted that they are
01:46waiting for American troops on the ground to set them on fire. Pro-Iran commentators frame Israel's
01:53decision as cowardice. While the regime conducts airstrikes and intelligence operations,
01:58it relies on U.S. troops to do the dangerous close-quarters work. This division of labor is seen
02:05as a predictable result of underestimating the Islamic Republic and the axis of resistance.
02:11Internal political and social divisions compound Israel's challenges. Debates over conscription,
02:18Haredi exemptions, and war fatigue have left the government unable to mobilize additional forces
02:25without risking unrest. For the resistance, this is a strategic victory. Pressure across multiple fronts
02:32has forced Israel to step back, while Iran maintains its capabilities and prepares for any escalation.
